Tricia’s Poetry Stretch this week at The Miss Rumphius Effect is to write a personal ad poem from an animal or literary character. I used my beagle, Captain Jack Sparrow, who is the most love-hungry dog I know!

Captain Jack Sparrow: I’m single I’m tri-colored Begging’s my game
When meat Disappears Somehow I get the blame
I’m dashing And handsome (My ears are quite large)
I’m happy To share half my Slobber—no charge!
I’d love A sweet lady Who wears eau d’death
Who drives Me quite wild With her livery breath
I’m looking For fun– Is that such a crime?
Let’s roll In the grass— Have a howling good time
Call 1-800-SPARROW –Laura Purdie Salas, |
